Tapping into Specialist Knowledge [video replay]
On December 1, 2020 the ULS Professional Development Committee moderated a program on strategies for developing collaborations between data professionals and subject and technical services librarians. The panelists presented several strategies that focused on the reciprocal nature of building relationships, teaching/learning new technologies, and sharing expertise within the library. With each strategy discussed, the panelists shared their experience implementing it and highlighted how successful collaborations resulted in broader impact and increased exposure for the library.
Panelists included:
- Thea Atwood, the Data Services Librarian at the University of Massachusetts Amherst
- Patricia Condon, the Research Data Services Librarian at the University of New Hampshire
- Catherine DeRose, the Program manager for Yale University’s Digital Humanities Lab.
The presentation slides are available for download. The session was moderated by Sam Harlow and Andrea Wright of the ULS Professional Development Committee. For a list of future and past programs, visit the Committee’s Programs Page.
